THE NEW EDUCATION: GREEN
FREE, REVOLUTIONARY
& PROFOUNDLY SPIRITUAL.


THE MOMENT HAS COME TO EDUCATE GENERATIONS AWARE OF THE IMMENSE RICHNESS OF THE EARTHS SPECIES, THE RIGHT OF ALL SPECIES TO PROSPER AND EXIST, AND THE NECESSITY FOR ALL HUMAN BEINGS TO BE RE-EDUCATED FOR PROGRESS, CONSCIOUSNESS AND RESPONSIBILITY.

A RADICALLY DIFFERENT, NON-UTILITARIAN EDUCATION IS IN ORDER IF WE ARE TO BECOME A TRULY PROSPEROUS SPECIES, A LIVING AND GROWING SPECIES, ONE WORTHY OF ITS ORIGIN AND RESIDENCE IN A COSMIC MATRIX FILLED WITH EXUBERANT MYSTERY, DEPTH AND BEAUTY.

THE INTEGRITY OF THE EARTH CAN REGENERATE ON ITS OWN TO A LARGE EXTENT IF LEFT ALONE TO HEAL. HUMAN NEED FOR SUSTENANCE NEED NOT BE MISTAKEN FOR THE HUMAN GREED, PROFITEERING AND DOMINATION CHARACTERISTIC OF PREVIOUS STAGES IN OUR EVOLUTION.

CHILDREN CAN BE EDUCATED TO TILL THE EARTH, TO PLANT GARDENS, TO SELECT BIO-DIVERSE SEEDS, TO CONSUME WHAT THEY GROW, TO UNDERSTAND THE NATURAL PROCESSES OF GROWTH, THE SEASONS, AND THE INTERRELATION OF ALL LIVING AND NON-LIVING THINGS.

OBSERVATION AND EXPERIENCE ARE THE GREAT NURTURERS OF WISDOM.
CHILDREN CAN BE LED TO EXPERIENCE THE EVER-TRANSFORMING, LIFE SUSTAINING ESSENCE OF THE NATURAL WORLD, AS WELL AS ITS FRAILTY AND VULNERABILITY. AND THROUGH THIS RE-EDUCATION WE CAN ALSO LEARN TO BE TRUE, TO BE THANKFUL, TO BE LIFE GIVING, AND TO ACCEPT LIFE'S PROCESSES IN A MORE COMPASSIONATE, UNDERSTANDING AND RESPONSIBLE MANNER.

WE CAN NOW TURN TO THE DISCIPLINE AND RICHNESS OF PERMACULTURE, THE TECHNOLOGY OF AGRICULTURE, THE ALCHEMY OF SUN, SHADOW, MOISTURE, EARTH, ITS MINERALS... AND THE SUBTLE LIFE-GIVING VITALITY THERE TO BE FOUND.

LAY THIS SCIENCE IN THE SMALL HANDSOF CHILDREN, LET THEM LEARN IT AS PART OF BEING ON THIS PLANET, PART OF LIVING. LET GARDEN AND MOIST EARTH NURTURE THE FRESH MINDS OF A NEW GENERATION. LET US TAKE THE SHOVEL OURSELVES AS TRANSITIONAL ADULTS. LET US PRACTICE WHAT OUR BELIEFS ARE, TEACH THEM WITH OUR ADULT EXAMPLE.

NOTHING WILL GROW IF IT IS NOT TENDED TO LOVINGLY, CONSTANTLY, TRULY. NOTHING SO OBTAINED CAN LACK VALUE, FOR ALL SUCH YIELD WILL BE EXPERIENCED AS THE FRUIT OF ACTION, THE REWARD OF HOPE AND CARE, AND THE ESSENCE OF RESPONSABILITY AND CONSEQUENCE.
IF OUR PRODUCE AND SUSTENANCE BECOME ESSENTIAL, AND OUR ACTIONS HAVE THIS QUALITY AND NATURE, THEN WE ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH.


THESE ARE UNIVERSAL TRUTHS THAT CAN ENRICH HUMAN INDIVIDUALITY, BUILD CHARACTER, BUILD DEPTH OF MIND AND ENRICH RELATIONSHIPS. AKNOWLEDGING THE COMMON GROUND OF OUR OWN NATURE'S, AS PART OF THE LIFE SUSTAINING EARTH, CAN ONLY DEEPEN OUR UNDERSTANDING OF OTHER PEOPLE AS WELL AS OURSELVES, AND LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR GREATER SERENITY, APPEASEMENT, TRUST, ACCEPTANCE.

THESE ASPECTS OF A NEW TRANSITIONAL EDUCATION CAN LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR CULTURAL CHANGE, FOR A UNIFIED LIVING WORLD, FOR UNDERSTANDING OF THE BEAUTY OF WHAT IS ESSENTIAL, AND A REJECTION OF WHAT IS NOT.

GO OUT TO YOUR GARDENS AND CREATE PLOTS FOR GROWING VEGETABLES. THE NEW EDUCATION BEGINS THERE. THERE WHERE WE STAND, THERE WHERE OUR SUSTENANCE FINDS ITS ROOT.
MAKE COMPOST, RECYCLE WATER, USE LESS, CREATE MORE....BECOME SELF RELIANT, AND OBSERVE CAREFULLY THE REFLECTIONS AND THE DYNAMICS THAT WILL ENSUE NATURALLY AND BRING ABOUT A TRUE TRANSFORMATION OF CULTURE AND LIFE ON EARTH, FOR BOTH THE INSTANT AND THE EON.

SUPPLANT DOMINATION, TRIVIALITY AND VIOLENCE-FILLED GAMES WITH OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES AND CONTACT WITH THE ENVIRONMENT. EMBRACE
THE PLANTS, THE SEASONS, THE MYSTERIOUS BEAUTY OF ALL FORMS OF NATURE WITHOUT EXCEPTION.

ONLY THUS WILL THE NATURAL WORLD GRADUALLY PROVIDE THE MOST ADVANCED MODELS FOR THE FUTURE TECHNOLOGY OF MAN. A TECHNOLOGY TO FRAME, RATHER THAN DEGRADE OUR SUBLIME AND ELEVATED CONDITION AS INTEGRAL MANIFESTATIONS OF A PRIMORDIAL GENIUS.
